Indigenous T-Dress Tutorial

I show you how to make your own T-dress. MATERIALS -Fabric: yardage needs to be at least the length/height of your dress x 2. (I'm 5'6" and wanted a long dress - mine was 57 inches - x 2 is 114 inches, which is slightly over 3 yards, so I needed slightly over 3 yards of fabric) -Dress embellishments: in this video I apply ribbon. Many also apply elk teeth, dentilium, porcupine quills, and other items. -Fray Blocking method -Drafting and sewing notions: scissors, rulers, measuring tape, thread, sewing machine, gluestick for ribbon -Bias tape IF that's how you're choosing to hem. I do not use bias tape in this video. -Zipper IF you're applying one. I do not use a zipper in this video.
